A month or so ago I tweeted a "what if" about a Jumbo Tauntaun after the Hoth Han was revealed. GG was quick to response with a favorite. I guess I was sniffing around the right area and I full well expect a Tauntaun announcement by Christmas.

I love the look of the wampa, and a vinty jumbo dewback would absolutely find a home in my collection. The jumbo line looks great, but space and costs have been a non-starter for me. Back in 1995, before 18 years of hoarding, I might have been on from the get-go.

It's been a great concept, they remind me of the 400% kubricks. the wampa, tauntaun, and dewback were some of my favorite kenner items, right after the at-at.

Now i m so screwed. I bought Yakface at the show, want the Wampa without doubt, and feel the need to track down a Yoda and a Jawa. Maybe i can sell my Stormtrooper if it is going for anything and try to get one of the 2 i want.

I just realized that Hasbro may have blown it with the 6 inch series. If they had done the kenner retro 6 inch line with cards like the gentle giant ones, I think many of us would have been way tempted. Especially if they essentially promised a full series of the entire vintage line. Then you throw in some droids figures and others as convention/retailer exclusives... I think it could have been gold.

Keep it down Dan. IF they did that divorce would be in line for me and my wife.

I'm daring to do the impossible: Not hating Hasbro for everything they do.

I have all of these to date now, but not sure I can sign up for Wampa or other larger packages. They are awesome, but just 30 of the figures takes up a ton of space. I can't imagine where I find space for even bigger items like this.
